Hi there, I'm relatively new to Hazel and I'm struggling to run a simple bash script based on whether any file gets added to any of the subfolders within the main folder I'm monitoring. Could someone tell me how to do this?

Do you want the script to run on the new files or on the folders containing them?

On the parent folder... Honestly the script is agnostic to any location and merely asks my media manager to rescan its pre configured folders..

Check the manual for the chapter on syncing folders. While the action you are taking is different, the rule there and the caveats associated with it apply.
